World’s largest indoor theme park opens in Dubai

Dubai’s IMG Worlds of Adventure, the world’s largest indoor theme park, has opened its doors to the public.

Wholly owned by the Ilyas and Mustafa Galadari Group and managed by IMG Worlds, IMG Worlds of Adventure is the first international mega-themed park to open in Dubai and will redefine the modern theme park experience given its unprecedented size and offering.

Spanning 1.5 million square feet – the equivalent of 28 football pitches – IMG Worlds of Adventure is the first global theme park to feature international brands Marvel and Cartoon Network, in addition to two proprietary brands, IMG Boulevard and Lost Valley – Dinosaur Adventure. Providing a truly unforgettable and immersive experience, IMG Worlds of Adventure includes a unique array of roller coasters and attractions, complemented by 28 original food and beverage offerings and 25 retail outlets.

Ilyas Galadari and Mustafa Galadari, executive co-chairmen and owners of the Ilyas & Mustafa Galadari Group, said: “The creation of IMG Worlds of Adventure is the realization of a shared childhood dream. This landmark launch has turned our aspirations of creating the world’s largest indoor theme park into a reality. This marks a great achievement for everyone at the Ilyas & Mustafa Galadari Group and we would like to thank everyone who has been part of this epic journey.
